You'll only get the notification if you're online when the announcement is made.
A desolate place, without any trace
It's only the cold wind I feel
It's me that I spite, as I stand up and fight
The only thing I know for real
There will be bloodshed!

Update today reveals that the precious Mann Co. Strongboxes are...

...filled with more hats. Great.


But they tweaked some more weapons!

SHORTSTOP
Knockback penalty decreased from 80% to 40%

SHORT CIRCUIT
Can no longer collect ammo from dispensers while active

CLEANER'S CARBINE
On Kill effect changed from 3 seconds of Crits to 8 seconds of Mini-Crits

NATASCHA
Added +50% max ammo bonus

RESERVE SHOOTER
Clip size increased from 3 to 4
Window of Mini-Crits increased from 3 seconds to 5 seconds

BEGGAR'S BAZOOKA
Not being able to collect ammo from dispensers now only applies when it is the active weapon

QUICK-FIX
"Fixed" Medics not getting a speed boost from Demomen charging with the Chargin' Targe or Splendid Screen


And of these, only the Short Circuit's change was necessary. The most unnecessary? Giving extra ammo to Natascha. I don't see how it's relevant to the problems with the weapon. The problem being that the weapon isn't fun for anybody involved. The Heavy has to spend more time shooting at someone because the gun does less damage. The person being shot at can't move because getting hit with it cuts his speed. It's lose-lose for everyone involved and they should just give it a complete retooling like they did with the Soda Popper.


They also changed Quickplay. Remember all that shit I said about not using Quickplay? It doesn't apply anymore. Gameplay-changing mods are banned, and now there are separate "filters" to allow you to search for No-Crit, 32-Player, and Fast Respawn servers. In addition, you can make Quickplay give you a list of twenty or so applicable searches for your specifications instead of it just throwing you into a server.

So basically, outside of nerfing the Short Circuit and making Quickplay less crappy, there's really nothing of note in this update.

They also removed the No Random Crits attribute from the Soda Popper since Hype no longer grants Mini-Crits.


Oh, by the way they changed more weapons around Christmas but it wasn't a big deal. Thought I'd point this out now since I didn't when it actually happened.

Also holy fuck TFC confirmed for being canon to TF2's timeline. ...Though they haven't aged gracefully.

Team Fortress Classic.

Which is a port of the original Team Fortress from Quake to the GoldSrc engine.

Honestly, the original mercs seem to be pretty interesting, I wouldn't mind having them added to the game in some shape or form.
